Hi Acuttie,
I'm afraid to inform you that your best option is to properly connect your existing networking devices. Connect the Cox cable modem to the WAN port of the Asus AC3100 wireless router. Then, connect the GS605 switch directly to a LAN port Asus AC3100 wireless router. Finally, connect the remaining 2 lines directly either to the other LAN port(s) Asus AC3100 wireless router or any LAN port(s) of the GS605 switch. :)
